Data backup time frame

Thread needs solution

Is there a log or information somewhere that TIH 2011 shows how long the actual backup took? I want to test a full system backup to a BlackArmor NAS via FTP and I want to figure out the actual transfer rate.

Also, I tried a partial test. Why is it when backing up via FTP the backup file is getting split instead of one large file? When checking settings I see Backup Splitting is set to automatic.

ATI uses a type of encoding for ftp backup that requires the file to be smaller than 2gb.

The log, under help, will show up the time stamps for each step.

Thanks Pat. Good to know. How does the cleanup option work with this. I set it like I did when backing up to a secondary internal drive. Cleanup every 5 or 6 days and start over. I guess it will be the same it's just there will be lots and lots and lots of files now. Before it was one about 80G with 5 that were less than 1G and mostly smaller. Now one backup (as you can imagine) like the initial (~80G and then starts over every 6th) is about 40 files.
